Ok I love Pq and I'm looking at up grading to a 29 but the pain in the arse designs is what's killing me ...buddy's outlaw ,the whole seat and bench lift outta the way so YOU can service engine ...just freaking frustrating . It just makes you wonder wtf when you get seasoned guys building boats not look at this stuff..I do feel better now lol

Got a buddy with a 29 PQ and the local wrench services both his sea water pumps without removing a stich of interior. It is tight, but doable.

A little cheat on hard to access engine compartments:
Raise the engine hatch up vertically and suspend it from above, or remove it completely. Then lay a moving blanket across the top of the motors and lay on top of them. It definitely improves your access
